Introduction CAREU WT1 Vehicle Tracker User Thank you for your purchasing the CAREU W T 1 Vehicle Tracker. We are very pleased to introduce you our excellent product, and you will enjoy great benefits by applying such a smart device. The CAREU WT1 Vehicle Tracker is a n all-in-one device that integrates multiple applications of GPS
(Global Position System), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) and GIS (Geographic Information Systems) with each other. Designed with the latest GPS technology, the CAREU WT1 delivers positioning message by GSM wireless transmission to GIS platform, and then helps back-end users proceed with the analysis and the applications of vehicle transport, management, anti-theft, security and tracking. 1.1 Features Cost effective and easy installation SMS, GPRS TCP/ UDP, USSD, FTP communications Geo-fencing reports Remote configuration Real-time tracking (time, distance interval or intelligent mode, and heading) Intelligent power management Power low/lost alarm Journey report wireless downloads GSM/GPRS simultaneously Firmware upgrade over the air (via GPRS from FTP) Up data log capacity Chapter 1 CAREU WT1 Lite Vehicle Tracker User Guide 1.2 Scope This document will guides you to start the CAREU WT1 Vehicle Tracker. However, as this document contains basic device configuration only, please see the CAREU WT1 Protocol Document for the advanced information. 1.3 About WT1 The CAREU WT1 Vehicle Tracker transmits the wireless signals such as location, peripheral, and vehicle control data to a control center. The onboard GPS receiver provides users with location data including speed, direction, mileage and altitude. It uses an onboard GSM/ GPRS module to accomplish wireless transmission. A microcontroller can probe location and command data at regular intervals, derive actions from location, peripheral and control data, and execute such actions. Among the best features of the CAREU WT1 Vehicle Tracker, in particular, they transmit data in ASCII mode or binary mode. Peripheral data indicates the status of various peripherals connected to and/or controlled by the device. The peripherals include, but not limited to, door locks/un-locks, starter interrupt, ignition, battery, engine and panic button. The firmware in the device applies intelligent filtering to overcome coverage limitations for both GPS and GSM/GPRS networks. Motion sensor controls the status of the device, whether in sleep, idle or fully-powered mode, and thereby controls the amount of current consumed by the device. Backup battery and tamper sensing GPS Antennas primarily indicate the loss of Main Power and the interruption of GPS antenna connectivity. The device supports over-the-air firmware upgrade to deliver additional functionality without physically touching the device once installed. In consideration of technicality and marketability, the CAREU WT1 has so many excellences to be competitive enough to stand out in the market. With regard to the technicality, the CAREU WT1 saves and records more data even under inactive communication staus, and it also provides better power management, coexistence of GPRS and SMS modes. When it comes to the marketability, the CAREU W T1 users are provided with the convenience that its firmware can be upgraded through mini USB without disassembling the device. CAREU WT1 Vehicle Tracker User 1.4 Hardware Architecture As hardware is concerned, the CAREU WT1 is comprised of a micro-controller, regulator, GPS receiver, GSM/GPRS modem, G-Force sensor, flash memory data storage, I/Os interface and LED status indicators. Users can connect PC's HyperTerminal to the Diagnostic/setting port for the AVL configuration. G-Sensor for man down warning. Chapter 1 CAREU WT1 Lite Vehicle Tracker User Guide 1.5 Related Document
